About RoKo

'So I've been putting this off for days now. I don't want to do it. Im not ok with the decision im making. But il be living in a 5th wheel trailer at a rv park. They won't allow my dogs to be there and its killing me. My phone number is 5597193580. My name is Jolene Sharee Sparks. RoKo's birthday is January 17, 2018. He's had his puppy shots. My mom said something about he may need boosters, i can get those if you need me to. Healthwise, he's always been very healthy, no problems at all. About 6 months ago, he started spitting up water. Then it started happening more often. I can't work so i don't have money to take him to the vet. So i called the vet's office one day and i asked if i can give tums. They said for his size i could give a half of one to him when he's vomiting. Also i went to PetSmart and looked at the dog food for sensitive stomach and they all had pumpkin puree. I couldn't afford the dog food so i started putting 1/4 tsp of pumpkin puree in his food every night. The tums only lasted 5 days. Im still doing the pumpkin puree every night. He hasn't had any more issue in over 2 months. Other dogs, kids, strangers, i do not trust him. I've tried, and he always wants to at least act like he's going to bite. So far, he hasn't bitten anyone during meeting. Although, when im loud with the kids or play fighting, he tries to bite us every time. He gets serious about that. He's ok around our cats and our bunny. But that was after time with intro. Him and Jack are not crate, or chain trained. I don't take RoKo out due to his not getting along with others, so i don't know if he'll walk on a leash, Jack will though. Neither are microchipped. RoKo is neutered. Jack is not. Jack came to us as a puppy from a wild pack on the indian reservation about 8 years ago. He's had all his puppy shots. If he needs boosters i can get those too. He's good with people and kids. Cats, after some time. Other dogs, he just needs to be introduced to them. RoKo has a tendency to think he's boss of Jack. He attacks jack often. Im careful as to where RoKo is when I let Jack into the house or into another room. But sometimes RoKo gets passed me and gets him anyway. I've tried everything i know to stop this. RoKo doesn't like to be outside for more than a couple minutes. He will start whining and yelping to come in. I've tried everything. He runs purely off nervous energy. When he's outside and is itching to come in, the best way i can describe it, is.. its like the monsters are after him and he's so afraid and needs to get inside now! He genuinely seems scared to be out there. I don't understand it. I've had him since 8 weeks old. I've never beat him, I've never mistreated him. I just don't get it. Jack is not neutered. And I live in porterville CA. Sorry I rambled. This is just very difficult for me and I want to make sure you have all the details.'
